By nature and by training, Sarah is a systems thinker who thrives off of cultivating meaningful relationships and connections with people. Rooted in over a decade of having her hands in the dirt at small and mid-sized diversified farms, she is passionate about growing a strong local food system that is sustainable, just, and economically-viable.

Jill’s enthusiasm for caring for others - which kicked off in kindergarten when she administered band aids on classmates’ cuts and scrapes on the playground - has grown into a full-fledged passion for fostering community health through thriving local food systems and sustainable design.
